Track statement entry timestamp in contrib/pg_stat_statements
This patch adds 'stats_since' and 'minmax_stats_since' columns to the
pg_stat_statements view and pg_stat_statements() function. The new min/max
reset mode for the pg_stat_stetments_reset() function is controlled by the
parameter minmax_only.
'stat_since' column is populated with the current timestamp when a new
statement is added to the pg_stat_statements hashtable. It provides clean
information about statistics collection time intervals for each statement.
Besides it can be used by sampling solutions to detect situations when a
statement was evicted and stored again between samples.
Such a sampling solution could derive any pg_stat_statements statistic values
for an interval between two samples with the exception of all min/max
statistics. To address this issue this patch adds the ability to reset
min/max statistics independently of the statement reset using the new
minmax_only parameter of the pg_stat_statements_reset(userid oid, dbid oid,
queryid bigint, minmax_only boolean) function. The timestamp of such reset
is stored in the minmax_stats_since field for each statement.
pg_stat_statements_reset() function now returns the timestamp of a reset as the
result.
